Fat Acceptance claimes obesity is healthy
The problem is that you equate "fat" with obesity. When fat ecceptance actually takes into account:
- Obesity
- People with curve
Also let be remindeed that obesity is a disease. Its not something that you overcome just because you want to. So for those two reasons, fat acceptance is primordial to help the person feel good with themself and then if necessary let her be able to seek for help without feeling rejected. This person seeking help being THEIR choices, not yours.
Feminists claim women are equal to men in phyiscal strength and bring up their own sciences and facts to prove it, only to get rejected.
I see very few feminist explaining tht, are you sure you are not strawmanning here ?
The definition of a trans woman is a biological man who identifies as a woman.
Wrong.
The definition of a transwomen is a person IDENTIFIED AT BIRTH as a man (in other words by doctors) because of potential MALE sexual characteristics (like the genitelia or chromosome) but who identify as the opposite gender.
F**K... if even the staff promotes wrong and potentially transphobic definitions now.. no wonder that your forum is filled with far rights lunatics.
But what is wrong with recognizing there is a difference between trans women and women?
Why would you need to not the difference ? Trans women usually go through a process transition during which they lose most of the physical attribute that are male characteristics. Sometimes, the transition is so clear that there is almost no difference.
Searching to highlight the differences between transwomen and cis women is categorizing forever trans to their status of trans and not to what they are actually identifying to.
Aside from sport where in the highest competitions there might be some differences of performances (and even there its debatable). There is absolutely no reasons to be transphobic and try to separate cis women from transwomen.
So let's not do it and lets respect those WOMEN.
Also note that we question - as usual - a lot trans
women, but noone is questionning the legitimacy of trans men in society or in sport where they are actually performing just as well as their pears. Again, its against all women that people are angry. That's another reason why we must be a little bit more protective of transwomen:
They get the double jeopardy:
- They are discriminated because they are trans
- When they transition they are also discriminated because they are women
And I'm not even mentionning the danger they face with transphobes. (rapes / abuses / mur etc.)
As long as woman is defined as adult human female, they are wrong though.
A women being only identified as an adult female in outdated definition that don't take gender definitions into account.
Or those like Dylan Mulvaney, who it feels like mock cis women. She has taken every stereotype men have of us and made it her personality.
Or maybe its just her personnality. Noone is perfect... no need to search of malicious intent.
Why did you have to use cis? I'm starting to feel like that is an insult. I don't need a qualifier.
"Cis" just means that you identify to the same gender you were assignated at birth. Its not an insult at all, its just a way not to exclude Trans when talking about all women when we talk about non trans person. What I usually forget to do. I should be more careful in the future.
